Stars and Stripes Lubbock is going higher, further, and faster as Marvel Studios serves up the newest addition in their beloved cinematic universe, Captain Marvel!

The year is 1995. The Dot-Com Boom hits, Michael Jordan returns to the NBA, and in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, a shape-shifting alien race known as the Skrull invade the planet! That’s quite a lot going on, and it’s up to U.S. Air Force pilot turned cosmic superhero Carol Danvers to swoop in and save the world from an intergalactic war! Captain Marvel boasts an all-star cast including Academy Award Winner Brie Larson in the lead, as well as Jude Law, Annette Bening, Ben Mendelsohn, and last but never least, Samuel L. Jackson as everyone’s favorite super-spy, Nick Fury!

Fans will no doubt remember the post credits scene from last year’s Avengers: Infinity War where Agent Fury uses a souped-up 1990’s pager to send out a call for help. Captain Marvel takes audiences back in time and delivers the story behind said page. Since the film does take place in the 90’s, Executive Producer Kevin Feige promises an atmosphere unlike what we’ve grown accustomed to with the MCU. Setting the story in an era before the emergence of superheroes serves as a way to let Captain Marvel “carve out her own space in the Cinematic Universe,” as well as deliver a Nick Fury who’s not so well-versed in super people. Plus, characters like Ronan, Korath, and Agent Phil Coulson are able to show up! Because, SPOILER ALERT, they haven’t died yet!

The good times are alive and kicking at Stars and Stripes Lubbock! Click the link below to get your tickets and BLAST OFF for Marvel’s Captain Marvel! Oh hey… You think the studio realized they used their own name twice? Oh well.
